Siege, the event seven years in the making has everybody talking! Superstar writer Brian Michael Bendis and superstar artist Olivier Coipel join forces to shake the Marvel Universe to its very core with Siege! In the wake of the Dark Reign, Norman Osborn, AKA the Iron Patriot, and his Dark Avengers have finally gone too far. Now, the original Avengers must reunite and gather Marvel’s greatest heroes to face a threat larger than they ever imagined!

With every issue sold out, and second printings in store now, one thing’s for sure– you have to read Siege!

“Siege thrives on the sheer pulp insanity of a lot of its concepts… thanks to Marvel’s commitment to crafting a coherent universe for its characters, signals the start of a major shift in its status quo.”– Benjamin Birdie, ComicBookResources.Com

“Bendis and Coipel each excel in their craft, with Coipel constructing every line to exacting detail, and Bendis showing remarkable restraint and haste.” – George Marston, Newsarama.com

“[Bendis] delivers plenty of ‘Aw yeah!’ moments that will tickle the funny bone and leave a smile on the reader’s face.” – Jesse Schedeen, IGN.com

“And what about Olivier Coipel? This man can flat out draw.” – Conor Kilpatrick, iFanboy.com

What is the Marvel Universe up against? Who will survive this epic ordeal? It all comes to a jaw-dropping conclusion in Siege #4 and you cannot miss what happens next!
